UK PM Boris Johnson announces face masks will no longer be legally required and distancing rules will be scrapped at the final stage of England’s Covid lockdown roadmap.

The rule of six inside private homes will be removed and work-from-home guidance abolished as 16 months of on-off restrictions on daily life end.

The PM said he expected the final step would go ahead as planned on 19 July.

This will be confirmed on 12 July after a review of the latest data.
